Summary

A great new look at Magic: the gathering.

The Good

Where to begin? I really liked how fast action and strategy were combined. Just like in the cardgame, you have to think up some strategies - although they're not as complex as in the cardgame, but much simpler combinations of cards. There is also the possibility to play online, and there should be downloadable content soon, too.

The Bad

The mechanics for unlocking stuff are a bit wobbly. You unlock new arenas and colors to play with in the Quest mode, but new characters to play with are unlocked in the Arcade Duels - which get virtually impossible to win near the end.

The Bottom Line

A great game for all MtG fans!
